Abbey Simmons
Operations Manager
Abbey leads the entire organisation at Elsy and is the head of the Elsy Leadership Team.
Abbey has spent 8 years in Disability Care as a Teaching Assistant, Support Worker, and SIL Team Leader across Children’s Care, Adult Care and Flexible Supports.
Abbey has been described by colleagues as a ‘deadset legend’ – her ability to ensure Elsy is a smoothly run ship with a total focus on client care quality means every client and every staff member is treated like family.
Abbey has set up our Supported Independent Living, Community Support and Sixth Street Cafe Day Programme to be industry leading in terms of quality. Just read our testimonials!
Abbey is expert in positive behaviour support, person-centred practices and active support, coordination of staffing, planning and NDIS reporting, client management and documentation.
After working with Life Without Barriers, Abbey was attracted to the mission and vision of Elsy and leading a fast growing and high quality support worker team, the Elsy family, to provide outstanding care to participants and families.

Sinead Stojanovski
Community Care Lead
Sinead leads the Community Service at Elsy and manages all our Community Access and Day Programme clients.
